£1.99 P&P or free delivery over £20 with FREEDEL20. Cruelty-free. 100% natural and organic, no animal products, lead, lanolin, parabens.
I chose this as a "makeup bundle" for Xmas from my boyf along with their Clarins lipstick (£5.99) and I would say the two are comparable - in fact the Bellapierre is a better bargain imho - though the Clarins bullet feels much heavier and more substantial. Even more of a deal now the price has went down £1 since I ordered last week, to £2.99!
I'm not sure as the finish isn't really discussed in most reviews BUT I did ask boyf to order me a cheapo Technic matte lipstick from Fragrance Direct as well.
Got a few Cougar items too from Fragrance Direct (they do skincare/mineral makeup/powder), which I haven't got round to trying yet, but this Cougar Mineral Make Up Organza Bag 5-1 Foundation Light 4g £2.50 http://www.fragrancedirect.co.uk/cougar/cougar-mineral-make-up-organza-bag-5-1-foundation-light-4g/invt/0073234 I don't recommend. Why the shade is described as "Light" is anyone's guess as it's a bronzey colour. I'm a typical blue-toned porcelain Scot. Gave it to my teenage niece to use for contouring. (Link doesn't seem to work now either, guess that's also out of stock).
Thanks OP greatful for the healpful post unlike some people who jump to the whole self promotion story :neutral_face:

Accusing a (trying to be) helpful HUKD member is pretty darn rude, especially when there is absolutely no reason for you to make such silly accusations.
I don't work for Fragrance Direct - I've already commented in the Clarins Deal post that I got an order together (from boyf) for Xmas and was reporting back. Then I realised the price has went down by £1, and was so impressed by this lipstick I posted it as a Deal.
'conflict of interest' is my point.
i dont do snooping, btw. :smiley:

Oh sheesh, here we go with the paranoid "self promotion" comments. Again.
Let's see, I got it when I listed a Poundland promo code about a year ago (and made a huge list of items to help people choose), when I posted about Corelle crockery (Argos), some Gearbest offer I can't remember....and many others.
If your snooping powers were a bit sharper you'd see, in my HUKD profile, I come from Glasgow. The girl in the Youtube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ap8QddwH3-E has an American accent.*
I was trying to help people out with swatches and information about these lipsticks. If it upsets you, your problem, not mine.
*Edit: I should also add, my previous comment would put my age at, being generous, around 40 years old, unless I've been wearing makeup since I came out the womb - still too old to be that 20-something girl in the video.

I wore my Bellapierre lippy for the first time last night to an 18th birthday do, eating and drinking, and it seemed to last well - certainly not bad enough for me to notice. I've worn a variety of lipsticks for 30-odd years so I like to think I know a bad lipstick when I try one.

ok so ,I had a few of these, unless you are getting them for Decor, otherwise they are rubbish. they don't last a minute. they just melt off and leave a mess! by the time ur out the door the lipstick is long gone! if ur committed enough to wear it, be prepared to re apply several several times! I chucked the lot in bin. just my opinion.

Thanks for this ! I am thinking of gg the more Natural Products-ish route, in terms makeup, as much as I can.. obviously makeup, by its v nature, is gna be loaded w untoward stuff, but the more Natural-ish products it contains, the better !

Fragrance Direct sells branded, discounted perfumes, aftershaves, cosmetics,hair care, skincare and beauty products. Our success is due to our ability to offer products at great prices, whilst still concentrating on a high level of service. Involved in direct sales since 1993 Fragrance Direct has always taken the product to the customer rather than the customer having to go from shop to shop to find their fragrances at the best price. We are able to offer highly competitive prices. This is done by keeping overheads low. There is no shop, no middlemen as we supply our products directly to the customer.
In October 1999, husband and wife team, Fragrance Direct launched its first website, an ideal vehicle to sell goods directly to the public. The company has taken on rapid growth and in June 2014 it launched its 5th generation website to offer more products, services and excellent customer experience.
We also have a retail store on Chestergate, in Macclesfield, Cheshire.
All the products that we sell are completely genuine - we have no dealing with counterfeit or fake products. We sell the same name brand designer products you will find in all the big retail department stores except not at the big retail prices. In the case of any of the unboxed or damaged items that we might sell, it literally is only the outer packaging that is the difference.

Bellapierre Mineral Lipstick is formulated with natural waxes and mineral pigments, iron oxides and antioxidants such as Vitamin C and Vitamin E. BellaPierre smooth silky lipsticks deliver moisturizing color that stays. The mineral pigments provide natural protection from the sun and the lipsticks are free of lanolin, bismuth oxychloride and parabens.
(Seems Bellapierre launched their mineral lipstick line with six shades originally, then added more)

Many aren't crazy about the plastic packaging, but it has a lovely texture and gorgeous pigmentation (I went for shade Mandarina).
Still £20 on the Bellapierre UK website http://www.bellapierre.com/uk/mineral-lipstick.html

There was a Red shade available when I ordered, guessing it's gone now, but it has a nice berry scent and looks good - doesn't last too well but hey, it's 99p! http://www.fragrancedirect.co.uk/technic/technic-colourmax-matte-finish-lipstick/invt/0066251#
